SANTA MONICA, CALIF. – Every football fan knows this feeling: making a call of exactly what the next play is going to be, it happens just as predicted and shouting – “I told you!” Now viewers can get bragging rights beyond their living room with the new ToldU mobile application. Users get to call the action before the play and declare their football supremacy.
During Super Bowl XLVI, ToldU app users compete live against their friends and nationwide viewers in a fun, interactive and challenging environment for ultimate bragging rights. ToldU users choose from a selection of possible outcomes, in real time and as it happens during Sunday’s Super Bowl game, risking virtual points based on the likelihood of the event actually occurring. Users win or lose points based on the accuracy and speed of their prediction – giving each user the ability to brag about their expertise in a statistically-derived leaderboard.
“ToldU engages one of the oldest urges in the world: the need to prove that I am better than my friends,” observed Matan Arazi, ToldU’s CEO. “By playing ToldU during a live event like the Super Bowl, players prove their expertise over a long haul – justifying it statistically. Winners can brag about their calls on Facebook and potentially win prizes.”
ToldU allows arm-chair quarterbacks to put their money where their mouth is before each snap, allowing users to predict the outcome of every play. Whether users think the head coach will call a run or the home team will kick it through the uprights, ToldU gives app users the chance to tout their smarts!
Users will have the ability to connect with their friends, family and other football fans within the iPhone or Android version of the app, getting their competitive juices flowing. After they make their predictions, ToldU users will have the option to move the smack talk to their Facebook walls. Let the rivalries begin…
